如何適應(yīng)托福綜合寫作的冷門話題?3個備考方法值得一試

1　多讀原版文章

我們可以先看一下cosmosmagazine網(wǎng)站上的這篇文章What killed off the vicious ichthyosaur?

這篇文章的部分信息和綜合寫作的類型非常相似，其中提到原來解釋魚龍消失的原因是競爭理論，但是最新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)魚龍在滅絕之前物種多樣，獵物也相應(yīng)地多樣化，所以不存在和其它捕食動物的競爭關(guān)系。如果大家平時經(jīng)常閱讀原版刊物，對類似題材的文章產(chǎn)生敏感度，考試時就不會對文章感覺非常陌生了。

2　根據(jù)題目搜索相關(guān)信息

考生們在看預(yù)測資料時，有時會有所疑惑，不妨自己搜索一下，充分理解反駁觀點的邏輯關(guān)系。2015年12月20日的綜合題是關(guān)于Iceberg whale是不是Alaska whale的。搜索一下關(guān)鍵詞：is iceberg whale a kind of Alaska whales，然后可以找到國家地理雜志網(wǎng)站的一篇關(guān)于該話題的文章。

在這篇文章中，作者不僅介紹了Iceberg whale得名的緣由，也解釋了以前在阿拉斯加海域觀察到的鯨魚有可能就是Iceberg whale。雖然文章的信息和考試中的信息沒有完全對應(yīng)，但是有一些關(guān)鍵信息是一致的，如“the coloring can change seasonally due to algae on the skin”。所以多搜索可以幫助大家更好地理解題目，而不是被動地接受信息。

3　總結(jié)綜合寫作的一些規(guī)律

綜合寫作考古題經(jīng)常會出現(xiàn)的一個類型是古代城市的滅亡原因。如2015年10月10日的Angkor, 2016年3月13日的Akkadian，總結(jié)規(guī)律，他們都有一兩個相似點：如，閱讀中都會提到他們受到外部侵略和環(huán)境影響(如旱災(zāi))。關(guān)于地形形成的考題，如2013年1月13日的Carolina Bays和2016年3月19日的Titan都出現(xiàn)了depressions的形成原因，兩題的聽力都提到了是外部環(huán)境(如水，風等)腐蝕造成的洼地。所以大家在復(fù)習(xí)的時候，可以進行歸納總結(jié)，摸透其中的規(guī)律，以不變應(yīng)萬變。

托福寫作解析:Arts or environment

Topic：Arts or environment?

A company is going to give some money either to support the arts or to protect the environment. Which do you think the company should choose? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

參考分析：

選擇哪一個都可以。只要列舉出兩三個sound reasons。并且要在作文中提及另外一個選擇的好處，以顯示“考慮周全”。

需要考慮的至少有兩點：

企業(yè)花錢，當然要考慮input-output ratio。投入哪一個活動中，公眾效應(yīng)更加明顯?

社會作為受體，哪一個活動將對社會有更多的實際好處?

參考范文：

將錢投入在保護環(huán)境上

(1)保護環(huán)境，有利于人民的健康

(2)保護環(huán)境，能夠更好地促進商業(yè)發(fā)展。

(3)公司將錢投入到環(huán)境上，能夠提高自己的名聲，更好的獲得利益

Frankly speaking, both arts and environment are important to human being. However, if I were the CEO of a company, I would rather give the money to protect the environment than to support the arts. Because environment protection is quite urgent and matters the future of our globe, while arts is a continuous process to improve the quality of life.

First of all, environment protection is very urgent. Global warming is becoming more and more serious. Many spices are dying, the ice in South Pole is melting, and many rivers are being contaminated. Now it is time for us to do something to save our earth and our own future.

Secondly, environment protection is very important for all, including human being, plants, animals and the Earth. When I was a little boy, I often played in the river that is located beside my village. The water was so clean that we could just drink it directly. There were also many kinds of fishes in the river. It was such a beautiful place that I often played for a whole day. Now things are totally different, the water became brown in color due to pollution from factories, very few fishes can live there. Those small children can never enjoy the fun that I once did.

Thirdly, the art is a continuous process to improve the quality of life, which is not as urgent as environment protection. In addition, there are many ways by which funds can be raised for arts, such as exhibitions and auctions of artistic works. Environment protection needs money more urgently than arts do.

Although both arts and the environment are important, I prefer to give the money to support environment protection, due to the three reasons mentioned above.

托福寫作解析:Dangerous sport

托福寫作題目：

Topic：Dangerous sport

Why do you think some people are attracted to dangerous sports or other dangerous activities? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

參考分析：羅列出三個理由，比如：金錢、快樂、無知

參考范文：

人們喜歡危險運動的原因在于：

(1)現(xiàn)在的生活壓力很大，生活枯燥，危險運動能夠放松自己，給自己一些刺激。

(2)危險運動能夠帶來巨大的金錢收益。

(3)危險運動能夠展示自己。

Have you experienced the fear of bungee jumping? Have you ever enjoyed the excitement of car racing? Nowadays, more and more people are attracted to such dangerous activities, especially the young people. Wondering why? After thinking about the lifestyle of those people, the reason goes as follows.

While the world is becoming more and more competitive, the tasks on each person's shoulders become heavier and heavier. People's everyday activities are very intense. The best way to relax and get relieved is to go in for dangerous activities, because while you are doing something dangerous, you have to concentrate on it, and you cannot think about anything else. Hence you relieved all the unhappiness and the troubles you had in the daily work.

In addition, to take risks and try out new things is one of human being's basic instincts. People always like to do something new, especially when something is popular as well. According to some statistics, the dangerous activities are becoming extremely popular among young people. If you do not try some dangerous activities, people will think that you are a coward and you are afraid of doing it. So it is reasonable enough for them to do dangerous sports to show their braveness.

However, I do not like dangerous activities and I believe the phenomenon that people are attracted to dangerous activities is just a whim. After realizing countless disadvantages of them, people will reconsider about them. Some safer activities to help people to get relieved will be developed afterwards.

托福寫作解析:An important skill

托福寫作題目：

Topic：An important skill

What is a very important skill a person should learn in order to be successful in the world today? Choose one skill and use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.

參考范文：

計算機技能是最重要的：

(1)計算機是工作中必須的。不會計算機軟件的話，無法進行工作和學(xué)習(xí)。

(2)計算機已經(jīng)成為人們互相交流的重要方面，如電子郵件等等。

(3)計算機技能能夠大量的節(jié)省時間。一個成功的人必須把精力抽出來放在最重要的事情上。

Success has been an issue broadly discussed and defined by different approaches. Some say that being successful means being wealthy. Others associate success with popularity and power. A third approach would relate success with social and emotional well-being. So we come to the questions: “When can be someone considered successful?” and “What skills make success easier to achieve?"

In order to answer the second question, we should have a point of view about what success is. I consider that someone is really successful when that person is able to handle and enjoy social relationships. A leader can be powerful and recognized, but if he is unable to enjoy his leadership and feels lonely because he cannot establish a deep friendship, can we really say such leader is successful? On the other hand, a wealthy person may have all the possessions money can buy, but again, what if he cannot manage a marriage or a friendship? This person is likely to feel lonely and unsatisfied.

Developing social abilities may be a very helpful skill for a person to learn, in order to be successful in the social emotional side of his or her life. One ability to develop could be effective and assertive communication. Many misunderstandings and conflicts can be prevented if we express our ideas clearly and respectfully, and if we learn to ask for clarification when we feel threatened or offended by something someone told us. Another ability could be learning to handle teamwork. We need to learn to work with others at work, at home, at school, in our community. Getting into an agreement with our parents, children, coworkers and friends is a situation that can become hard to handle sometimes. Dealing with teamwork can be really helpful. Finally we could add the ability to deal with conflicts with others and conflicts with our own wishes or decisions. We will always find obstacles in our paths; it can be quite useful to know how to overcome them.

In my opinion, I would define success as being able to enjoy what you have, what you do and who you deal with everyday. And to achieve success, you should have skills that help you handle relationships with your peers. We are social creatures; we need each other to succeed, and to enjoy our success.
